R!SE ABOVE WITH ME 

For years, I jumped from job to job, feeling stuck and out of place. As a neurodivergent person, I struggled to find work that suited me and often felt like I didn’t fit in. Even after earning a psychology degree, I realized that traditional career paths weren’t built for people like me. What I needed was someone who truly understood my experiences—someone who could help me navigate life in a way that made sense for me.

That’s why I created R!SE ABOVE WITH ME COACHING—a space where neurodivergent individuals can find guidance, support, and real strategies to help them build a life that works for them, not against them. Through coaching, I combine customized strategies, practical resources, and advocacy support to help you gain confidence, set meaningful goals, and create a life that aligns with who you are.

I’m here to be the coach I wish I had—someone who understands the neurodivergent experience firsthand and provides support that actually makes a difference.

Meet Your Coach

I’m Certified Autistic (yes, that’s a real thing!), which means I don’t just understand struggles like anxiety, sensory overload, and navigating a world not built for us—I’ve lived them. My experiences have shaped who I am and how I approach coaching. I know what it’s like to feel out of place, to push through tough moments, and to grow into a life that finally makes sense.

I’ve also had to adapt—a lot. Having lived in over 40 different places, I learned firsthand how to adjust, rebuild, and find stability in unfamiliar situations. Those lessons have become an essential part of how I help others today.

My Background

My education and training combine both academic knowledge and lived experience to create a well-rounded, practical approach to coaching.

I studied Psychology and Sociology, earning an A.A. degree and became a member of Psi Chi, The International Honor Society in Psychology. I completed coursework just short of a Bachelor’s degree, focusing on Abnormal Psychology, Developmental Psychology, Learning & Behavior, and Cognitive Psychology. Even though I didn’t finish my degree, my studies—combined with my personal journey—have given me deep insight into human behavior and how we grow through life’s challenges. I’m constantly learning, evolving, and seeking new ways to support those I work with.

I hold certifications as a Life Purpose Coach and Professional Life Coach from Transformation Academy. These programs are accredited by the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Standards Agency and recognized by the Better Business Bureau, ensuring my coaching is backed by professional training and ethical standards. These certifications allow me to help clients find clarity, direction, and meaningful progress in their lives—whether they’re facing personal challenges, career uncertainties, or struggles with self-acceptance.

I also have hands-on coaching experience from my time at Sitel, a global call center, where I worked with employees to improve their performance using SMART goals and tailored strategies. This experience reinforced my belief that everyone learns and grows differently—which is why my coaching approach is always personalized to fit your unique needs.

Beyond Coaching

I’m also a writer and storyteller, passionate about exploring personal growth, healing, and connection. My books reflect the same values I bring to coaching:

 From Blind Faith to Fact: A Journey to Healing
 The Alchemist’s Apprentice: How Connection Became My Crucible

Both books dive into self-discovery, resilience, and the transformative power of relationships—themes that resonate deeply with neurodivergent experiences. You can find them on Amazon if you're interested in exploring these ideas further.

At the core of everything I do—whether it's coaching, writing, or simply sharing my journey—is the belief that everyone deserves support while they grow and find self-acceptance. You don’t have to figure everything out alone. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’m here to help.
